Public Awareness

The NLDHA has made it a prime objective to raise public
awareness of dental hygiene and highlight our profession throughout the
province. To accomplish this objective, a committee of dedicated
members will need to be established to facilitate this end.

The committee is responsible for:

communicating among members the need for regular community involvement;

developing a resource base of ideas for special events, clinical, community and school involvement;

gathering resources for hygienists who would want to conduct campaigns within awareness and/or dental hygiene;

finding creative ways to elevate the profession among the public; and

fostering the need for community involvement among fellow members.
